Facilities Department Announces Tree Work for July 22 to Aug. 9
There are several trees on the Amherst
College campus that must be taken down,
as recommended by a consulting arborist
who periodically evaluates the
condition and health of campus trees.
Given the risk to the campus community
associated with the degraded condition
of these trees, the college is left
with no option other than removing
them. The Facilities Department has
hired a contractor to remove these at-
risk trees at several locations on the
campus. This work will be done July 22
through Aug. 9. If there are any
questions, please contact Bob Shea at
rwshea@amherst.edu.

Facilities Department Announces Annual Hydrant Flushing for Aug. 5 to 9
